Mario Kart World 

 

I am so torn when it comes to Mario Kart World on the Nintendo Switch 2. We purchased a copy of the Nintendo Switch 2 that came with a downloadable copy of this kart racing video game. We paid five hundred dollars for that package. I know others are paying eighty dollars for Mario Kart World. I do not feel that this racing game is worth that price. I will get into that in a little bit.

The big draw for Mario Kart World is the giant open world. This is a really cool feature in this speedy video game. There are cups, knockout tours, time trials, battles and more in Mario Kart World. If you pay a monthly or yearly subscription then you can play Mario Kart World online with others. As of launch there are 50c, 100cc, and 150cc.

Twenty four characters can race in Mario Kart World. We find different skins for the characters from the golden lunch bags that contain food that can be eaten. Players need to be a certain character and eat a certain food item to unlock specific skins. As we collect coins we unlock new vehicles. There are no advantages to the different skins or vehicles. If you are a one hundred completionist then you might care.

For me Mario Kart World feels like Mario Kart done in the Forza Horizon open world racing. The Forza Horizon games contain maps as big or bigger than Mario Kart World for less money. There are also more cars and more options to mod the cars in he Forza Horizon games. Mario Kart World looks great, and it sounds good too. There are cool side missions to complete on the map if you are interested.

The racing can get hectic at times with so many characters in Mario Kart World. I had fun playing Mario Kart World for four to five hours. I beat multiple modes on the 50cc. I unlocked quite a few karts and character skins. I also figured out how to teleport around on the map. I like this game. I feel like the price point is too high and that drags it down.
